Method, apparatus, and computer-readable storage medium for simulating an aerodynamic event on an aircraft during flight

An apparatus for simulating an event on an aircraft during a flight, the apparatus in communication with a physical flight simulator capable of simulating the flight, the apparatus comprising a computer processor and a memory, the computer processor being configured to:

• access executable code including one or more scripts configured to be deployed on the physical flight simulator to simulate one or more aircraft parameters on the aircraft during the event, the one or more aircraft parameters characterizing a current status of the aircraft or systems thereof during the flight;
• execute a simulating application to simulate, on the physical flight simulator, the event on the aircraft during the flight;
• execute the executable code to deploy the one or more scripts and output the one or more aircraft parameters to the physical flight simulator, subject to the one or more aircraft parameters, and receive user input in response to the event thereto;
• continuously update the one or more aircraft parameters in response to the user input;
• and
• output data, including data characterized by the updated one or more aircraft parameters, for analyzing user reaction to the event.

A computer-readable storage medium for simulating an event on an aircraft during a flight, the computer-readable storage medium being non-transitory and having computer-readable program code stored therein that, in response to execution by a computer processor in communication with a physical flight simulator capable of simulating the flight, causes an apparatus to:

• access executable code including one or more scripts configured to be deployed on the physical flight simulator to simulate one or more aircraft parameters on the aircraft during the event, the one or more aircraft parameters characterizing a current status of the aircraft or systems thereof during the flight;
• execute a simulating application to simulate, on the physical flight simulator, the event on the aircraft during the flight;
• execute the executable code and deploy the one or more scripts to output the one or more aircraft parameters to the physical flight simulator, subject to the one or more aircraft parameters, and receive user input in response to the event thereto;
• continuously update the one or more aircraft parameters in response to the user input;
• and
• output data, including data characterized by the updated one or more aircraft parameters, for analyzing user reaction to the event.
